1. A disaster support apparatus providing:
- an enclosure, and in the enclosure;
a circuit providing, in operational interconnection, a primary means for illumination;
an auxiliary means for illumination;
a means for sensing an ambient lighting level;
a means for detecting motion of the enclosure;
a means for air monitoring;
a means for sensing motion of objects near the apparatus;
an audible alarm means;
a means for wave energy wireless signal propagation;
a means for wave energy wireless signal reception;
a means for audible presentation of recorded medical advice;
a portable means for providing electrical power to the circuit for operation thereof, and;
a microprocessor adapted to control the circuit such that with the ambient lighting level below a designated level as determined by the ambient lighting level sensing means, and with a sensing of an object near the apparatus, the auxiliary illumination means is energized, and further, with a gas level of a selected gas detected above a designated level by the air monitoring means, or with a motion of the apparatus, having a magnitude above a designated level, being sensed by the enclosure motion sensing means, or with smoke being detected by the air monitoring means, an audible alarm is produced by the audible alarm means, and a wave energy alarm signal is transmitted;
and the apparatus further including a means for storing medical and sustenance supplies;
and a garb means for excluding poisonous gases during breathing.

Abstract
A disaster support apparatus provides a compact enclosure within which a power supply energizes a circuit providing emergency lighting, radio wave and audible beacons activated by violent earthquake motion, a low level illumination for those attempting to find the apparatus in case of a flood or cave-in, a series of prerecorded medical advice statements activated at the press of a selector switch, a radio receiver, air sampling sensors, tied into the audible alarm, and storage capacity for medical and sustenance supplies and other equipment. The unit provides a wall attachment feature for mounting the unit in its standby mode, but the unit may be removed for portable use.
